Limited 1 for 20 Retailer Incentive Variant Cover. (W) Christopher Priest (A) Alessandro Miracolo (CA) Stuart Sayger Convinced she is either dreaming, hallucinating, or possibly dead, the recently reconstituted Red Sonja (formerly Maggie Sutherland, late of the UK) decides that her best shot at escaping her apparent nightmare is to simply permit the worst to happen.
